n.Meringue dessert. Named after ballet dancer Anna Pavlova. It is crispy on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside. Can be decorated with anything from kiwifruit to MnMs.

A NEW ZEALAND dessert which is like a white cake but is like biting into moist foam, which sounds gross but is actually really nice. You can also put fruit on it. Some of the best fruit for a Pavlova are strawberries, raspberries and kiwifruit. They are traditionally eaten at Christmas or a birthday.

parlavantzas 

Harassment behavior characterized by a one-sided, disproportionate dispute, by a party that was in the wrong in the first place and can't overcome the bitterness of getting punished for their wrongdoings.
The judgement found him guilty more than 15 years ago, yet this jerk keeps his parlavantzas going on his personal blog and in the media.

You have to stop with this parlavantzas, Konstantin! Otherwise things will turn ugly at some point!
